Historic Old Town
Mühlenplatz, which first emerged in the late Middle Ages following the demolition of a terrace of houses, is, at 1500 m2, Lucerne’s largest historic square. 
 
Excavations in the vicinity of the square have revealed that the area was already settled before the foundation of Lucerne as a city. During the Middle Ages, it was home to mills of all kinds due, principally, to its proximity to the river and the need for hydropower.
